Would that do away with sizing wax?

I'm new to reloading having done less than a thousand rounds. I'm only doing .308 ammo (for accuracy) and I'm using the Redding Competion dies. I use Imperial sizing wax and it works really well. I also happen to have a rifle that has NP3 coating. That got me thinking (a dangerous thing, I know): If they can coat a whole rifle white not a sizing die.

Has anyone here tried to coat sizing dies with an electroless nickel-based finish for steel that co-deposits sub-micron particles of PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene), otherwise known as Teflon, with electroless nickel?

Would that do away with sizing wax?
